When does a roller coaster's energy change from kinetic energy to potential energy?(1 point)
after it goes downhill and begins to climb again
as it coasts to a stop at the ground
as it goes into a downhill curve
when it is not moving at ground level
I chose C.

You are correct. The answer is C - as it goes into a downhill curve. When the roller coaster goes into a downhill curve, its kinetic energy is transferred to potential energy as it gains height.
Answers for the Potential and Kinetic Energy Quick Check !!
1: Potential energy
2: after it goes downhill and begins to climb again
3: He can use a thermometer to measure the water's temperature.
4: Gas A has greater kinetic energy.
5: The molecules of water have gained kinetic energy and increased in volume.
hope this helps !!
